Baked Sweet Potato Slices with Rosemary
Baked Sweet Potato Slices with Rosemary are so incredibly easy to make. With a touch of honey, this pretty, vegan side dish pairs with just about everything, during any season.
Ingredients
- 1 pound sweet potatoes (about 2 medium-large), washed and dried
- 4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, washed and dried, finely chopped
- salt and freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven and prepare the pan. Preheat the oven to 375°F and adjust a rack to the center. Line a sheet pan with foil and coat all of it with about 2 tablespoons of the olive oil.
- Prepare the sweet potatoes. Slice the sweet potatoes into rounds that are approximately ¼ to ½ inch thick. Place them in a single layer on the prepared sheet pan. Use a pastry brush or your finger to rub the remaining olive oil on the top surface of the slices.
- Make and add the honey-rosemary mixture. In a small bowl, combine the honey and rosemary and then warm it in the microwave just long enough to thin it, about 8 seconds. Brush an even amount of this on top of the sweet potato slices and sprinkle lightly with salt.
- Bake. Place the sheet pan in the preheated 375°F oven and bake until the sweet potato slices are very tender, about 20 minutes. (You can check them with a fork.)
- Adjust seasonings and serve. Taste one of the slices and then sprinkle a bit more salt and little pepper to taste. (Here’s How to Season to Taste.)
